Hey man,

Sorry there wasn’t a post yesterday… we're changing our upload times to mornings AND my car windscreen was quacked.

Here’s the AI rundown for today…

• Joe Biden raises AI concerns 🇺🇸 🤔 

• AI learns to mimic animal movements 🐘 🤖 

• Real text or fake text? AI knows. 📱🧠 

• AI identifies objects with one touch 🫱 1️⃣ 

“Joe Byron, take me out to dinner…” 🥙 

Memes and jokes aside, Joe Biden is set to discuss with tech advisors how to stay safe and grow with AI .

The 3 point rundown… swish! 🏀 

• President Biden is set to discuss “opportunities and risk” with a council of tech advisors

• Zooming in on how the US administration monitors AI progression

• Specific attention will be shown towards ‘safeguarding’ and protecting rights of citizens when using AI

Our thoughts: With Elon Musk’s open letter and the Italian government banning ChatGPT. We think it’s important that nations begin to protect citizens from harmful AI use. 🪴 

The more safeguards we put in place the more fun we can have with AI! 😁 

Never miss a moment with AI 🦒 

What the dog doin’?

Ever wonder how your dog went from sitting down to on top of the kitchen counter? Okay, extreme example but our pets sometimes end up in weird places… 🐶 

It’s all now predictable with AI!

Researcher’s from the University of Konstanz have utilised AI computer vision in order to visualise the intermediate steps of animal movement. 🐒 

All they need… is an image of an animal at its initial and final position. 📷️ Kachow!

Progress, but not perfect! The AI tool functions by using statistics to predict animal movement. Then, it is computed and turned into an animation that visualises movements from start to finish.

Quack, are there other uses? We can definitely see this being used to recreate scenarios in fields such as crime investigation to catch culprits!

It’s like filling in the blanks to solve those mysteries. 🕵️ 

Real text or fake text? AI knows 🧠 

Is he really the one? Or just another scam message 😅 

Spot the difference between AI and human texts: The team over at UPenn’s School of Engineering have created a tool that detects whether texts messages made to emulate human speech are real or not.

This tool protects us from:

• Scam messaging

• Certain social biases

• Fraud

• Identity Theft

• Duck memes… 🦆 
  

It’s all fun and games: The team created a web-game ‘Real or Fake Text?’ which prompted human users to choose images as the title suggests. The data was then used to train an AI model to the very same tasks. 🎮️ 

And it works really well! With over 85% success rates, we can see this helping out people most prone to scamming schemes. ✅ 

One grasp is all it takes… 👋 

Falling in love with me, possibilities. - Dua Lipa 🎤 

One of our favourite songs here at The Daily Quack. 😋 

Copy the original, then do better: The project team at MIT have produced a human-like hand that can identify an object with just one grasp. It features a skin like exoskeleton that can wrinkle and mould around objects for a good fit. 🤌 

Camera hands??? Along the 3 fingers of the hand are cameras that snap 6 photos of the grasped object, before sending images off to a trained database that can help determine what the object actually is. 📷️ 

The more the better: The team seeks to implement for fingers into the hand for more accurate image capture, as well as increasing sensing along the fingers for more precise fitting. 📝 

Perhaps they’ll be able to tell Pigeons apart from Ducks 🦆 

Our meme pick of the day 🔥 

LeGoat. 🐐 

Fan art? I barely call this one art 🎨 

This one is messed up…
